Despite cynical statements by Russian propaganda, the Russian military is systematically shelling Ukrainian hospitals. In two months of full-scale war, more than three hundred medical facilities were damaged.

But even in such difficult conditions, hospitals continue to operate, and doctors sometimes literally live at work. Health workers set up bomb shelters, support people's health, and consult online.

And they find an opportunity to dream with young patients about their plans after the victory.

On the morning of March 16, the hospital was startled by rocket fire. One of the enemy missiles hit a building 300 meters from the hospital. The blast damaged windows in one of the buildings, and fragments of shells flew across the floor. But the team of doctors continued their work.

On February 24, pediatric neurologist Halyna Fedushka was on duty. She decided not to evacuate and stay at work, so she set an example for the rest of the doctors.

During the first month of the war, Okhmatdyt's doctors worked, rested, and lived in a hospital. In addition to coordinating the delivery of drugs that initially had major problems, treating the sick and injured in the hospital, doctors provide online consultations. Halyna says that doctors are actively sharing their phone numbers with those who cannot get to the hospital.

They also help colleagues who work at the forefront. As a neurologist, Halyna compiled a list of drugs and their substitutes that doctors at the front can prescribe for concussions, headaches, and dizziness. And he is in regular contact with military medics through messengers.

Halyna says that these tests united the hospital team even more.

Before the full-scale war, women made up 83% of health workers in Ukraine. And now they continue to play a central role in responding to the challenges of war by fighting for people's health.

Thanks to the courage and professionalism of such women as the doctors of the capital's Okhmatdyt, life is sustained in Ukraine.
